Are you looking for a way to give your kitchen a modern makeover? N-Hance Huntsman Wood Refinishing can help! Painting your cabinets is a simple yet effective solution. Here are 8 tips to achieve a modern look with your kitchen cabinets:

  1. Consider open shelves: Installing open shelves in place of some of your cabinets or as a focal point in your kitchen can create a more modern, open feel. It’s a great way to showcase your favorite kitchen items and add personality to your space.
  2. Go monotone: Painting the cabinet surfaces and hardware the same color can give your kitchen a sleek, monotone look. It creates a bold statement as doors blend together yet stand out at the same time.
  3. Choose gold hardware: If you don’t want to paint your hardware but still want a modern look, opt for a gold finish instead. Pair bright white cabinets with warm gold knobs and pulls. This look is clean, contemporary, and can be carried throughout the rest of your kitchen with gold pendant lighting, a gold faucet, and other metallic decor.
  4. Try a two-toned approach: Painting your kitchen cabinets in two different colors is another popular trend. For example, paint the upper kitchen cabinets a light tone and the base cabinets a darker shade or a contrasting color. Or, paint your kitchen island a unique, bold color while painting the rest of your kitchen cabinets a more neutral choice, like white.
  5. Incorporate natural elements: If you have high-quality, hardwood cabinets, consider staining your island and painting the rest of your cabinets. This brings elements of the outdoors into the home, with a modern, sleek look.
  6. Experiment with color: Just because you want a modern kitchen doesn’t mean you have to use white cabinets. Don’t shy away from bold colors like deep slate, soft gray or greige, or even light blue for a coastal comfort vibe. These colors are clean and calming yet still, make a statement.
  7. Go classic with white: White cabinets are always a safe bet for a modern look. They’re bright and contemporary, plus they give you the flexibility to style the rest of your kitchen with a variety of accents. If you decide to change up your style later, white cabinets can easily be incorporated into a rustic or traditional look..
  8. Embrace Simplicity: Opting for a minimalistic design for your cabinets results in a clean and uncluttered kitchen space.
